"CNN Daybreak" was an early morning news television program on CNN, anchored from New York by Carol Costello. It debuted on June 1, 1980, the same day CNN went live.

The first program to air live weekdays on the network, it preceded "American Morning" at 5:00 a.m. ET. Similar to "First Look" on MSNBC, the program was based on covering the news stories of the morning without talk and analysis, usually with correspondents on location or taped stories from the previous evening.

Until spring 2005, Daybreak was aired from the CNN Center in Atlanta. Costello then moved to New York following her marriage. The show moved to the Time Warner Center shortly after.

In October 2005, as a cost cutting measure, the program was canceled. The last official broadcast was on November 25, 2005. Carol Costello graciously bid her crew farewell, thanking them, and telling viewers how much they will be missed. Carol occasionally anchors the news and appears as a contributor to The Situation Room.

The timeslot is now occupied by a rerun of Anderson Cooper 360 and the second hour is occupied by American Morning.

In early 90', there were 3 Daybreaks in the morning. At 6am CNN Daybreak with Rick Moore and Molly McCoy, at 7am CNN Daybreak with Bob Cain in Atlanta and Norma Quarles in New York and at 8am CNN Daybreak with Rick Moore and Molly McCoy.
